Ashahve- Young, vibrant and free. Living the life of a college student she has her eyes set on being a professor and is all set for a career of a lifetime student. The major she chose is made all the more sweeter by her unwitting crush on her professor. She finally feels its the perfect time to try her hand at blurring the lines when she gets thrown a curve ball that shifts her desires outta focus. Having had the opportunity to cling to her hearts desires, she will find that love is not all roses and rainbows and can definitely have you retreating to a safe place. A place not capable of the solace needed, but one she seeks none the less. That one decision could possibly ruin everything that she truly desires. If that is not enough she still has enemies who intend to disrupt her peace. That is until all the secrets are revealed and she will finally understand the old adage "The enemy of my enemy is my friend" when she has to answer for all of her choices and decisions.
Omari- This man is a thuggish, intellectually and morally sound veteran. He has a good plan and laser beam focus. Especially since he has a little one that is watching the every move of her superhero. Being single is no burden and definitely the peace of mind he needs to stay on task to achieve his goals. That is until he meets a spark that instantly becomes the flame to ignite his every dream for the future. But is it reciprocated? When the answer to that question is in the affirmative, Omari will find himself in a situation that brings all his demons to the forefront. Will his inner battles destroy the very thing he always needed in his life? He has to make a change or he stands to lose everything he worked hard to achieve. Especially when things keep hitting him left and right. His daughter doesn't have a mother and his one constant in life may have crossed a line you could never uncross. Will he be able to survive the domino effect?
Story From My Perspective
This book had to be the most anticipated of the year for me. The nerves I experienced waiting to see what happened, were the worst, but like an addict, I had read and get the high only this story could provide.
When we left off in part 2 Ashahve was faced with a dilemma; one that has the ability to shed light on all of her extracurricular activities. She feels lost because she never saw her future shaping up like this. Almost too late, her heart is finally is in agreeance with her mind. As she waits to see if her future is full of all the promise she desires, her enemies start coming out of the woodwork's. In her home and in her life she feels attacked and all she wants is for it to stop. That's why its always good to have a rock in your corner to help you navigate the storm.
Omari has had to do a lot of soul searching. Now that he is all that his daughter has, he must step up and remember why he does all of this. It would be a little easier to do if his love life was actually where he wanted it to be. It's not the love he doubts, but the new set of circumstances might actually ruin it all before he ever has the chance to make it right. No matter the problem, he will protect his investment with his life. All he can do hope for the best and pray against the worst. All he knows is that he refuses to fail after all he has put into building greatness.
Elijah is a lost soul. Nothing makes sense anymore, especially since he invited trouble back into his life. Now he is faced with a lifetime of work possibly being destroyed by the folly of his impulsive decisions. The one thing he obsesses over is no longer available as a buffer to get him through. He must take a firm stance to finally put himself first and protect everything he worked hard to achieve. Elijah will find support in the most unlikeliest of places and finally have the blinders taken off of his eyes but will he be ready for the one thing he never thought he would have?
This author and I had some very deep conversations about this series. I had never really understood what a gray area was until she forced my thinking to skirt the boundaries. Those blurred lines lent to the life relativity between these pages. For once we had the opportunity to see a woman deal with issues that are more commonly indicative of the strife most men face in love. It was a new and fresh perspective and one that I am actually elated that my eyes were opened to see. This series definitely opens the floor to conversations, some are harder than others to have but should be explored. In one series I laughed, cried, cussed and just had all out blow ups. Nothing inspires your emotional being like something that conflicts with your personal edicts. That is why I am happy to have had the opportunity to partake of a series that has actually showed me of the many avenues that love can take and to always expect the unexpected.
